Mike Braun, who chose not to run for reelection to the Senate and instead opted to run for governor, is projected by the NBC News Decision Desk to beat a crowded field of Republican contenders, including Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch.Braun’s focus during the campaign was on improving economic opportunity within the state, citing his experience as a small business owner.
McCormick received her doctorate in education from Indiana State University. She is running on a platform that includes increased investment in public education, protection of reproductive rights, and finding unique solutions to eliminate wasteful spending while not eliminating key programs,McCormick was endorsed prior to the election by the American Federation for Teachers’ Indiana chapter, the Indiana State Teachers Association and several other groups.
